Sizable Pair of Jesus & Mary Bronze Wall Plaque Sculptures by Francis Corbeels

About the Item

Rare pair of early 1900s bronze plaques by Fr. Corbeels (1888-1956). This sizable pair of bronze wall plaques is another one of our recent, great finds. Finding works of art by this skilled Belgian sculptor is a real challenge and at this moment we cannot find any of his sculptures for sale, anywhere in the world. What makes this pair extra special is that we cannot find any other religious sculptures made by this artisan. Francis Corbeels has beautifully captured the serene and wise facial features of Christ and the depth makes this perfectly cast bronze even more impressive. Mary who is slightly looking up (at the cross, we assume) also is beautifully serene in her mourning. The size, the excellent condition and the beautiful expression on the faces of these iconic Christian figures, makes these bronze plaques in relief truly marvelous. They could only have been made by a known and successful artist and we are proud to offer them to the 1stdibs community first. Thanks to the metal hooks on the back they can easily and safely be mounted on your wall. They will look divine no matter where you decide to hang them and they will never fail to impress, because of their beauty and deeper meaning. Our price for this bronze pair even includes perfect packing & worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days. Maximum diameter x depth 11.6 x 1.55 inches. Weight per plaque circa 2 kilogram or 4.5 pounds lbs. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish, for meaningful and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again). You can shop all our 900+ listings by pushing the button that reads 'View All From Seller'.

  • Museum Quality Bronze of Christ Wall Plaque Sculpture "Jesus Carrying the Cross"
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Stunningly powerful and meaningful work of religious art. With works of religious art being one of our specialties, over the decades we have sold quite a few special antiques in this field. With this bronze antique the artist clearly shows us a fragment out of one of the most famous scenes that took place in the history of mankind. Christ has already been beaten, mocked, given a wreath of thorns and having to carry the enormous cross. As you can see the quality of the details and the workmanship is excellent, but the scene and its meaning ofcourse is even more impressive. Please notice how particularly the facial features reveil the peaceful state of being that lies underneath the exterior of this Christ sculpture...

    Unique antique bronze wall plaque by Belgian sculptor Sylvain Norga. This Gothic Revival work of religious art dates from the Art Deco era and it is a little bit of a rare specimen. For some reason, Sylvain Norga almost always created bronze wall plaques of Christ. In some cases he created bronze plaques with both Jesus and Mary in them, but the ones with only Mary are very hard to find. We find it extra special that this stunning and practical size Mother Mary sculpture...

  • Antique Icon like Gilt Bronze Mary and Child Jesus Plaque over a Holy Water Font
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Meaningful and perfectly hand-crafted antique church relic. This religious work of art dates from the earliest years of the 20th century and you could not wish for a better condition antique. This finest of holy water font plaques could not be in better condition, but that is also because it was all handcrafted out of the best materials only. Even the hand sawn, square nuts on the back are gilt. And the cross-like hook with the French Gothic fleur-de-lis ends with the ring on top (for easy mounting this gem to your wall) is another detail that shows us that no expense was spared when this antique was hand-crafted all those years ago. Whenever we find religious antiques of this quality and excellent condition, they usually were made for and used in either a church or a monastery (also, because that is where the budget was for the best quality pieces). The quality and the finish of this church relic really is among the best we have ever seen, but the quality of and the details in the sereen Mother Mary...
